"This trial is now in session." The judge banged his gavel. "We may now have opening statements."

Choji stood up. "Your honor, the facts are as follows. My client destroyed two Hot Topics, and personally harassed me. We plead insanity."

"I object!" shouted Pain. "This guy is totally lame, get him out of here."

"Order, order." The judge pounded the gavel again, and looked down at Pain. "Is it not true, that you're Choji's attorney as well, Mr. Pain?"

"Yeah, but he's guilty, just look at him.""

The judge eyed down Choji. "Works for me." He shrugged. "I declare Choji guilty, because he looks guilty, take him away."

Anbu poured into the courtroom, a few of them were intercepted by flies, forcing them to retreat, as they couldn't handle the awesome might, of the most useless insect that ever existed. They grabbed Choji, it took thirty of them to lift him up, mostly because their muscles were basically paper, one of them even dared to wear a, "I Heart Mom," shirt.

Choji screamed as he was hauled off, the force of the scream, incapacitated countless Anbu, in the end, Choji failed to bring his ten lbs bag of chips with him, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Shikamaru walked out from the prosecutor's stand. "This trial is a drag your honor, I don't want it to drag on, because I have a drag race to attend. Clearly, the defendant used a dragon to drag the life out of the Hot Topic."

"Shikamaru..." The judge held back a cringe. "You're completely insane aren't you?"

"Honestly, I don't really like dragging my own name through the mud. So let's get started.

The body of Jiraiya was dragged out of the Hot Topic, just five days ago. We believe this was also Pain's doing."

"Do you have any proof?"

"We have video footage of Pain walking out of the Hot Topic dragging an Invader Zim shirt, personally, I wouldn't be caught dead in that. Perhaps he stripped the shirt off Jiraiya so he wouldn't be either?"

"That theory is completely ludicrous."

"I object, your honor," said Pain.

"What are you objecting to? The trial seems to be going your way."

"Invader Zim is a great cartoon, you people just don't understand it. Jiraiya would've liked it too, if I hadn't stabbed him, for not being dead."

The judge blinked twice, taking in Pain's statement. "You know that's a confession, right?"

"Whatever, I hate this dumb courtroom anyway, it smells in here."

Suddenly, a large explosion came from the courtroom entrance. An Anbu ran in. "We tried to stop them, but, they had a pencil sharpener." He fell over.

"We really need to hire better security," mumbled the Judge.

Pain's paths marched in, all of them, except Jigokudo, who was working as a street performer, trying to raise cash, to pay for the pizza he skipped out on.

"Let's get out of here, poser," said Chikushodo.

"It's about time." Pain got up, and joined the group of bodies. "Later, smelly courtroom people."

"Not so fast!" shouted Ebisu, from behind them.

"Oh, it's that guy, didn't he get wreckt by Jigokudo?" said Pain.

Ebisu pressed his fingers into his glasses. "Indeed, and yet, he didn't bear witness to my true power."

"Show us then," said Shurado.

Ebisu started making intricate hand signs, all of the paths gasped as it looked like he was doing something interesting. This feeling of shock, wore off after only a few minutes, when Ebisu was still making hand signs.

"Should we kill him?" asked Ningendo.

"I think he'd make a nice pet monkey," said Shurado. "Let's have a vote."

The paths held a courtroom ballot, even polling the jury, after an hour of deliberation, they had reached a verdict.

Pain knocked the judge out of his chair, and made the announcement. "By a verdict of fourty three, to zero, the generic ninja dies."

Ebisu stopped making hand signs, instead, he began to laugh.

"Time to meet your end, poser," said Ningendo.

Ebisu's laugh changed to a full on howl, as he made one final handsign. "Boring no Jutsu!" he shouted.

In just a split second, the entire courtroom melted away, the paths separated, when the building reformed around them. They were each in individual prison cells.

Ebisu cheered, "finally, I did one thing right, my life finally means something." The smile on his face melted as well, when he realized he was also locked in a cell.

"Serves you right, poser," said Pain.

Anko walked in. "So, these are the new inmates then? This is gonna be fun." She flashed a devilish grin.

Ebisu screamed at her to release him, but she just walked on past him. "I don't belong in here!" he shouted. "NOOOOOOO!"
